There's no way anything unexpected will happen!

Wen Ping didn't want to say more. Unlike Yang Lele and the others, the Sword Demon didn't need his careful guidance.

The Sword Demon had his own ideas, his own will.

So the Sword Demon knew what he should do.

When Wen Ping stopped speaking, Dark Stream Annihilation had already charged into Celestial Traveler's Fire Dance·Pingyang Realm.

A figure in black shuttled through the flames; no matter how the fire pillars roared and erupted, they couldn't harm Dark Stream Annihilation in the slightest.

This was what made Dark Stream Annihilation special.

As long as he didn't attack the enemy, he could keep phasing through anything without being attacked.

"Sect Leader, this is…?"

"It actually isn't afraid of Celestial Traveler's Vein Technique at all."

Huaikong and the others watched this scene and couldn't help but sigh endlessly.

It also made them understand.

So it wasn't that Celestial Traveler was too strong.

It was that they were too weak.

The existences at the Sect Leader's side were truly terrifying!

At the same time, when Celestial Traveler saw Dark Stream Annihilation ignoring his Pingyang Heaven and continuously flying toward him, his mind went completely blank.

What the hell is this thing?

He actually can't be hit!

So this is the kind of expert in the Immortal Sect?

Turns out the Sword Demon wasn't even the strongest in the Immortal Sect!

After suddenly realizing this fact, Celestial Traveler instantly lost any intention of fighting on, because reinforcement would still take a quarter of an hour to arrive.

But he couldn't maintain Pingyang Heaven for much longer after releasing it.

Let alone that Pingyang Heaven couldn't even touch the other side; he didn't even have the qualification to stall for time.

Withdraw!

Fire Dance·Pingyang Heaven instantly dispersed.

Celestial Traveler turned around to flee, but at the very moment he turned, Dark Stream Annihilation opened his eyes.

Abyssal Gaze!

One of Dark Stream Annihilation's Skills.

The moment Dark Stream Annihilation opened his eyes, anyone who saw them would be entangled by the abyss, their reaction speed halved.

Run?

There was absolutely no way to get away.

...

At the same time, Wen Ping had already lost interest in watching the battle.

He took out the Storage Ring filled with Demon Pills, tossed it to Huaikong beside him, and then said, "Inside is a Half-Step Demon Ancestor's Demon Pill. After refining it, it can help you increase at least a hundred to two hundred years of Cultivation. There are also some ordinary Demon Pills, but they're enough to nurture over a dozen Demon Gods and let the Demon Race take another step forward. Who you give these Demon Pills to is up to you."

Although the Demon Race was a vassal, Wen Ping couldn't be bothered to micromanage them.

Leaving this sort of trivial matter to Huaikong was good enough.

"Many thanks, Sect Leader."

Huaikong was overjoyed once again.

With these Demon Pills, not only could the Demon Race's power take another step, it could undergo a qualitative leap.

Take him for example: if he could gain an extra hundred or two hundred years of Cultivation…

He might be able to strike at the Demon Ancestor!

By then, people like Celestial Traveler today wouldn't be worth fearing in the slightest.

After handing over the Demon Pills, Wen Ping looked at He Nian to the side and then said, "Elder He, after the war, go find Pei Wu of the Scattered People Post and convey this Sect Leader's words to her."

"Sect Leader, please speak." He Nian felt a doubt rising in his heart.

How the Sect Leader would deal with the Scattered People Post was what he was most curious about.

If it were him, frankly, he wouldn't have any ties with the Scattered People Post at all.

Because the Scattered People Post was too weak.

In fact, this was a good thing for the Scattered People Post.

Wen Ping pondered for a moment, then said, "Tell them to withdraw back."

After Celestial Traveler's death, Zhetian Tower would definitely make a comeback, and might even open up a battlefield at Heaven and Earth Lake.

This could be foreseen.

So next, Heaven and Earth Lake might fall into the flames of war.

The Demon Race would serve as the main force against Zhetian Tower. Wen Ping's original idea of letting the Scattered People Post take over Heaven and Earth Lake naturally could no longer be realized.

With Zhetian Tower's sky-covering giant hand reaching into Heaven and Earth Lake, the Scattered People Post appeared far too insignificant.

With one misstep, the Scattered People Post would face annihilation.

So next, the Demon Race had to replace the Scattered People Post—not only as the main force against Zhetian Tower, but also to seize control of Heaven and Earth Lake.

To take over Heaven and Earth Lake.

Heaven and Earth Lake was the Immortal Sect's main base; they absolutely couldn't let Zhetian Tower stain it, or else one after another they would all be like Celestial Traveler—self-righteously treating Heaven and Earth Lake as Zhetian Tower's territory.

"Sect Leader, I'll deliver your words later. I believe Alliance Leader Pei will definitely understand your intention." He Nian nodded.

After giving these instructions, Wen Ping immediately left the sky and was directly guided back to the Sect through the Teleportation Array.

After being struck by Abyssal Gaze, Celestial Traveler's reaction speed was halved.

Dying at Dark Stream Annihilation's hands was a certainty.

Celestial Traveler was no Qiongqi.

If Dark Stream Annihilation wanted to kill him, it couldn't be easier.

As for the other two Half-Step Celestial Unrestricted that Weisheng Xingyu had mentioned, Wen Ping had already received word that they were still staying within the Hundred Sects Alliance's territory.

He believed Celestial Traveler's death would make them fearful.

The two of them definitely wouldn't make a move for now.

As for why Wen Ping had hurried back, it was because Weisheng Xingyu had gained something in the Final Forbidden Area.

...

Bright Mirror Lake.

When Celestial Traveler's chest was pierced through with one scythe strike from Dark Stream Annihilation, everyone understood that the war had temporarily drawn to a close.

In this battle, the Immortal Sect had won a huge victory!

Zhetian Tower had lost many Earth Unrestricted Experts, as well as a top Half-Step Celestial Unrestricted expert.

After the war ended, Huaikong and the others began repairing Heaven and Earth Lake's Space Barrier.

He Nian also found Pei Wu, who was healing inside her tent.

When she saw He Nian walk into the command tent, Pei Wu hurriedly stood up, ready to salute, but was stopped by one sentence from He Nian.

"Pei Wu, the Sect Leader has given an order."

Pei Wu froze, then shook off the supporting hand of the maid beside her and knelt down on the ground.

Inside the tent, the high-level members of the Scattered People Post all knelt as well.

A command from the Immortal Sect's Sect Leader—they naturally treated it as divine decree!

He Nian continued, "The Sect Leader orders you to withdraw back."

After he finished speaking, Pei Wu and the others were instantly stunned.

But they didn't dare disobey; they could only kowtow and then nod in assent.

Looking at the somewhat dejected Pei Wu, He Nian sighed and explained, "Alliance Leader Pei, do you know what kind of war is about to erupt at Heaven and Earth Lake?"

Pei Wu was confused. "I ask Elder He to enlighten me."

He Nian swept his gaze over everyone, then said, "In the war that's about to unfold at Heaven and Earth Lake, even Earth Unrestricted Upper Realm and Half-Step Celestial Unrestricted will no longer be the top combat power. You are powerless even against a mere Earth Unrestricted Middle Realm—what do you think you can do in such a war? How will you preserve yourselves? The Sect Leader is merciful and doesn't wish to see you all die at Zhetian Tower's hands, so he orders you to withdraw back to your own territory. After this war ends, when there is no more Hundred Sects Alliance and no more Zhetian Tower, a new path will naturally be given to you."
